Leaking batteries in carts

[jvalentine98]

I go way back for most of you. I got NES for Xmas 87 and REMEMBER buying Super Mario 2 when it was new. That said, my Zelda cart quit saving a long time ago. I didn't replace the battery but moved on instead. I know it's hard to do, you have no idea. No matter how big a fan you are of that game I go back farther with it then you do unless you're over 30

I think you'd be surprised how many people here are either close to 30 or in their 30s...some here are well into their 30s.

Amusingly the battery in the gold Zelda cart I have is still good even though I bought it used and it has some mild abuse. All of the SNES games with batteries I bought back in the day still work too. I can replace the battery if you want, as can several others on the board if you want to bring it back to life.
